Two Ladies Manatee and Human

Two females, a female manatee and a lady snorkeler bond in the clear blue waters of Three Sisters Springs. Sometimes manatees are very curious about all life surrounding them, even us. The snorkeler respects the manatee's space. Crystal River National Wildlife Refuge, Kings Bay, Crystal River, Citrus County, Florida USA.
